b'Spiritual Life and Service LearningAs an Episcopal school, we celebrate the beauty of pluralism, walking within the Judeo-Christian faith as expressed in the Episcopal tradition while extending a warm and inclusive welcome to individuals of different faiths and backgrounds. We foster a culture of inclusion that honors all faith traditions, encouraging students to explore questions about spirituality and their relationship to God. Students participate in weekly worship that includes all-school community-building chapels, divisional chapels, and Masses. As students progress through the grade levels, opportunities for spiritual exploration and reflection are thoughtfully woven into the fabric of student life. Formal religious education begins in Upper School, where students delve into biblical studies, world religions, ethics and leadership, cultivating a deeper understanding of faith and its role in shaping a purposeful life.Guided by our core value of communityof building strong positive relationships as the foundation of all we dowe recognize that every human being is unique, that each of us is called to grow into our fullest potential, and that each of us is called to help others live their fullest potential as well. As such, our students and faculty and staff engage throughout the year in a number of community-outreach initiatives and activities, including our Day of Service in January each year honoring the legacy of service of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.Beyond the ClassroomField trips and other on- and off-campus experiences help teachers enhance student learning for a variety of content-area curriculum and in turn help students deepen their understanding of the same by engaging directly with the world around them. Among the many engaging, interactive activities for students each year, our Lower School students spend a day with engineers from Raytheon building and launching model rockets; third graders engage in months-long study to reenact early life in Tucson; and students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades spend a week exploring earth science in Prescott Valley, Arizona; marine biology on Catalina Island, California; and United States history and civics in Washington, D.C.'
